Welcome to Gaia! ::

The world was in a state of balance. Good and evil vied for dominance and order battled against chaos in a perfect balance.

Until the fabric between the barriers started to break and tear. The evil of the planes of hell started working their way into the world, tipping the balance into chaos.

The prophets spoke of a small group of people, sometimes even creatures, who, with their pure souls, would be able to permanently fix the barrier between the planes.

Wizards, warriors and heroes of all shapes and sizes rose up to fix the barrier. They could close the gaps, but not permanently. The gaps would eventually reopen or just open again somewhere else.

And then a small group, drawn together by random circumstance, find themselves battling a group of demons together.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There we go, a role-play that starts with fighting. Don't worry about profiles, just post and make sure your character is described well in the first post. Also, make sure that your character is different to everyone else's. I.E., same race, different class (wizard or fighter or archer). Try to be imaginative and don't, for any reason, god-mod.

Finally, I am limiting this role-play to 6 characters.

Lydia stood silently, her eyes closed, eerily still. Suddenly her eyes snapped open. A dark blue stream of ice whipped around, slaying many, though she herself did not move at all.

Xavier stared at the gnome who managed to light herself and was currently rolling in the mud. The rain she has summoned had rinsed the blood from his wounds and made him feel a little refreshed, if not soggy.

"Try and close the gate!" he yelled to the two spellcasters before he ran across a slid patch of ground towards the group of demons that were partially enthralled by the priest. A smile on his lips about the story he was telling, Xavier started working on the demons that weren't enthralled.

(LoL You shall never cease to amuse me ^^)

Aya was relieved when he noted the assistance and continued his story. Apparently the main character in his story was born to a halfing couple, and over the years she grew to a monstrous height for a halfing, of 6’. Her name was Olivia, and the story itself was quite similar to the ugly duckling story, where in the end she found her prince charming that thought she, a tall halfing, was wonderful. Of course though, he went into much more detail than this to occupy time. Still, his breathing was getting worse and soon many of the demons would begin to attack again. But at least the gate was closed, and once they picked these creatures off they fight would be far in their favor.

So still the human cleric swung his morning star at those still attacking him; though again, the fight was getting much easier, especially with Xavier’s assistance.

Xavier, with help from the bard, continued to kill the demons who weren't entranced. It was getting a little hard for Xavier to resist, but he'd managed to secure a little amulet that helped him resist such enchantments, not that it did much.

When he sensed no threat from the remaining demons, he signalled for the bard to back up a little, for attacking one would probably wake them all and there were still enough to make life hell for a few seconds.

The merchant signalled for everyone to close in behind the demons were possible, not completely sure how long the cleric (swore blind only bards could ramble like that) could ramble for. He was also sure that their resolve might start to strengthen shortly, given any chance.

What's confusing about it?
